Abstrakt:	A study conducted at Brigham Young University examined the relationship between donor characteristics and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in heart transplant recipients. The researchers found that heart recipients who received organs from donors over 40 years old, female donors, or donors who died from intracranial hemorrhage had a higher incidence of cardiovascular death. The study suggests that monitoring and potentially treating innate immune activation in donors could decrease adverse outcomes in recipients. The research provides valuable insights into heart transplantation and its impact on recipient outcomes. [Extracted from the article]
